Good afternoon!\u00a0 I’m having such a lovely day.\u00a0 This\u00a0morning was one of those mornings\u00a0where I wanted to explode and grow and learn more about photography.\u00a0 So I took myself over to Barnes and Noble and poured my heart into a vast amount of books.<\/p>\n

I found a nice little nook with an empty comfy cozy seat.\u00a0 That’s\u00a0where I sat with\u00a0my pile of books and\u00a0Cinnamon Dolce Latte.\u00a0 Words can’t express what a lovely combination that was.<\/p>\n

There are some books that come across as highfalutin, intimidating and just downright no fun at all.\u00a0 Then my friends, there are those books that grab my attention right from the start.\u00a0 They’re the kind of books where the author is down to earth, fun and interesting and overflowing with\u00a0life experience and\u00a0knowledge.\u00a0 Those are the kind of authors I enjoy and learn from.\u00a0 They are also the kind I\u00a0welcome to\u00a0my library.<\/p>\n

Four hours later, I walked away filled to\u00a0overflowing and empty handed.\u00a0\u00a0I just can’t\u00a0see spending full price for books when I can get them on Amazon\u00a0or E-bay.\u00a0 I did come home and place a couple orders and my total bill was\u00a0more than a 60% savings.\u00a0 It makes me wonder how my favorite fancy schmancy bookstores will be able to keep the doors open.<\/p>\n

I’m having such a great time growing and learning as much as I can.<\/p>\n

I didn’t get many pics taken of myself this week but I like these daily mid to late afternoon outdoor visits.<\/p>\n

Tune in next Monday, I’ll be back to share a little\u00a0more.<\/p>\n
